This seems like a pretty rotten blow to the Xbox Series X launch lineup. I really like playing games on Xbox, but I don't even know what is coming out at launch now.
That said, I hope this really helps the development of this game and eases the burden on 343 during this weird ass time. If it ends up making a better game, that's great. More importantly, if it leads to a more sustainable development cycle for the behemoth franchise games, any amount of time is worth it. It's kind of impossible to imagine that the pandemic isn't going to directly affect the launch of any game coming later this year, and likely next year. A lot of people have had to pivot into situations that are not ideal for making games in, so anything getting made right now is pretty damn impressive.
